1) (3 points) Find the exact value of this expression sin-1* ( )+ is in * +, then sin-1* ( )+ =
2) (3 points) Find the exact value of this expression cos-1( cos-1( Let ) ) = cos-1( ) , where , and -1
= cos-1(
) ==> cos =
Thus, cos-1(
)=
3) (3 points) Write the trigonometric expression as an algebraic expression in u. tan(sec-1 u) Let = sec-1 u ==> sec = u, where , and x Then tan(sec-1 u) = tan = = 1 or x = -1
4) (3 points) Establish the identity (2a sin cos )2 + a2(cos2 Left side: (2a sin cos )2 + a2(cos2
- sin2 )2 = a2
- sin2 )2 = 4a2 sin2 cos2 + a2(cos4 - 2cos2 sin2 + sin4 ) = 4a2sin2 cos2 +a2cos4 - 2a2cos2 sin2 + a2sin4 = a2cos4 + 2a2cos2 sin2 + a2sin4 = a2(cos4 +2cos2 sin2 + sin4 ) = a2(cos2 + sin2 )2 = a2(1)2 = a2

Since is in Quadrant I, then every trigonometric function is positive (meaning cos > 0, sin > 0, tan > 0, cot > 0, sec > 0, csc > 0).
Since is in Quadrant IV, then only cos and sec are positive (meaning cos > 0, sin < 0, tan < 0, cot < 0, sec > 0, csc < 0). Then, sin2 + cos2 = 1 ==> sin = sin2 + cos2 = 1 ==> sin = = ( ) = ( ) =
